Happy Birthday, Lennon!

Lennon turned 8 today.

While he will never loose his silly goofball side, it has been great watching him emerge as a serious and strong leader on the soccer field this past year.



His birthday gifts included an Andromeda soccer ball, Suarez jersey, Lego building sets, and a Lego clock.


Iria made a soccer field cake for him, and Lennon set up the Lego teams.



His grandparents are visiting this weekend, which made the day extra special.
